I saw these dead trees lying along a path. Apparently, they were diseased. Out of pity, I felt inspired to create this painting. This dead branch seemed to be reaching up and out to the white clouds above, as if longing to be part of the life around it.

Deep down inside, we all have a deep yearning for something more...something not of this world. We long for God, Our Creator. Only He Has the ability to recreate or resurrect us, restoring us to life. There is always hope.
